The Irishman is out on Netflix * 1
    #26352641 - 11/29/19 06:57 PM (4 years, 2 months ago)

The Irishman is on Netflix. I guess they only put it in theaters for a few weeks to be eligible for the Oscars. I'm only 48 minutes in. I'll watch the rest late tonight. The age reducing tech worked well. The movie seems more subtle and less in your face than Goodfellas. Pacino playing Jimmy Hoffa doesn't seem as realistic as Nicholson's version, but I've only seen a few minutes of him. I read a recent review that said the greatness of the movie is achieved in the last half hour.

Should have called it Oldfellas. It was good but not Casino or Goodfellas good.

I guess, What's the best one though?

The irishman was terrible
The music sucked
The age reducing CGI looked weird
It dragged on too long

Those are just the ones that came to mind quickly, none great. Added Stormy Monday, didn't come out and say Finney was mob, but he probably was.

Yeah, it sucked, would have been better if they had some different actors, not a bunch of od farts revisitting their tics and mannerisms or if they let the old farts ad lib lines in random places without a story.

You didn't like any Irish mob movies? I liked Millers Crossing and The Departed. State of Grace and Kill the Irishman were above average. I haven't seen Southie for a long time. Rose McGowan was believable as a girl going off the rails on alcohol.

The departed was pretty good, ill admit, forgot about that one.
Never cared much for miller crossing.

Im just sick of seeing movies about Whitey Bulger and Jimmy hoffa.

Black mass was fucking awful
